Arran

The Arran Distillery was built in 1995 on the north of the isle of Arran. For the first time since 150 years the island has another legal distillery. The isle of Arran was once for famous for its whisky and in the early 19th century there were over 50 distilleries, most of which were illegal. The new Arran distillery has been well received by whisky connoisseurs and stocks are developing well.

The MO ÒR Arran from 1996 is a great all-round whisky with a light and sweet character and a remarkable smoothness for a relative young dram.

Nose: Fresh with a hint of salty liqourice and some granny smith apples as well.

Finish: Long and fullbodied with a hint of sweetness after a minute or so.
